Massachusetts moose lands in front seat of car

Driver Juleigh McDowell of Sterling, Massachusetts was on the wrong end of a nasty surprise late Thursday, when a 500-pound moose crashed through her windshield on Route 12, ending up ‘sitting’ in the passenger seat, its head sticking through the glass. We’re not exactly sure how a moose origamis itself into a car seat, but as the poor animal was later euthanized, the question is probably best left unanswered.

Driver Juleigh McDowell of Sterling, Massachusetts was on the wrong end of a nasty
surprise late Thursday, when a 500-pound moose crashed through her windshield on Route 12, ending up
‘sitting’ in the passenger seat, its head sticking through the glass. We’re not exactly sure how a
moose origamis itself into a car seat, but as the poor animal was later euthanized, the question is probably
best left unanswered.

Remarkably, the driver escaped serious injury.
